Andreas Weimann

How it would be reported by The Grauniad.

Bearing the unusually bisexual name Andreas leaves us to consider whether Herr und Frau Weimann really wanted a child of a different gender.   One might say Naturlich das familie Weimann chose eine Nahme which could serve the eventual outcome of the marital conjunction.   What is in greater doubt and which will generate much schadenfreude with the football teams Andreas scores against is how this young Austrian fussballschpeiler came to be at West Midlands once great but now mudigkeitvoll Aston Villa FC.   Seeking to clarify his perzonal circumstances  junge Herr Weimann tweeted Und soweiter und soweiter....

Not credible Brian; insufficient nuimber of typos.

"ARSENAL AND TOTTENHAM BATTLE FOR ASTON VILLA HOTSHOT ANDREAS WEIMANN


TOTTENHAM and Arsenal are keeping tabs on Andreas Weimann.

The North London duo are locked in the scrap for the Champions League places. And they could renew their rivalry in a summer battle for Aston Villa’s versatile forward.

The Austrian has been a rare positive for Paul Lambert’s relegation-threatened side.

He has bagged 10 goals in his first full campaign, including Villa’s consolation against Arsenal on Saturday.

And the 21-year-old could be available for a cut-price fee in the summer.

His £15,000-a-week Villa deal has just 17 months left to run. The Midlanders have begun talks over a new contract but Starsport understands no offer has yet been made.

Whether he stays or goes is likely to hinge on whether or not Villa are escape the drop into the Championship.

They are now in the bottom three but Weimann said: “We know that we’re in there but we’re all confident we’ll get out soon enough.

“We’ve got 11 games to get out of it.

“We’re confident that by the end of the season, we won’t be in there.”



You couldn't make it up! Or, then again, maybe you could.

It wouldn't surprise me at all if top clubs are looking at him, he's going to be great. Sadly our ownership is draining pretty much all the hope from the club.

[Drummond]

Our stock is definitely falling; it used to be Manchester United, City and Chelsea that wanted our better players, now it's the 'North London duo'.

Our stock is definitely falling; it used to be Manchester United, City and Chelsea that wanted our better players, now it's the 'North London duo'.

And soon it'll probably be the likes of Stoke and Fulham.

Oh well, on the bright side, at least they've stopped moaning about Bent being dropped.

Yeah, that outrage has subsided somewhat since Weimann and Benteke have proven themselves to be good enough players.

How the fuck can anyone describe Andy's goal on Saturday as consolation? F in wankers!

I thought that, too.  They just seem to write nonsense. 

[UK Redsox]

Why would Andi sign an extension now ?

Waiting until the end of the season is surely in his best interests

[darren woolley]

I really hope he sign's a new contract we need to keep him.
